Dan Nigro discusses his Grammy nominations and focus on artist development in pop music

Dan Nigro, a producer nominated for six Grammys, has shifted his focus from his band, As Tall As Lions, to producing pop stars like Chappell Roan and Olivia Rodrigo. He emphasizes the importance of long-term artistic development over chasing viral trends. After Atlantic Records dropped Roan, Nigro launched his own label, Amusement Records, to support her music. He believes that the current music industry often overlooks artist development, focusing instead on immediate hits. Nigro is currently working on Roan's next album and collaborating with other artists. He aims to blend traditional songwriting with modern production techniques, helping artists express their unique styles.
